Chapter 333: Destruction by natural disaster (3000 words, 15)
Richard looked at the orc city built in the valley in the distance with playful eyes.
The architectural style of the orcs is more rough than that of the desert, or it can be described as barbaric and primitive.
The city wall is made of huge stones, more than 30 meters high and 100 meters long, connecting two hills with a height of 100 meters together horizontally.
The appearance is so uneven that ordinary people can even climb up using both hands and feet.
It is said to be a city wall, but it is more like an enlarged version of the wall.
Above the city wall, giant sharpened trees were wrapped with steel rods and faced outwards. They were completely opposite to the intricately carved settings of human cities, and were so wild that it was outrageous.
The orcs, whose fangs were exposed outside their lips, were patrolling back and forth over two meters in size, their ferocious eyes always looking at the outside of the city wall.
Once an enemy attacks, these soldiers with large and small scars on their bodies will immediately tell the enemy who is the owner of this land.
Looking across the city wall, you can see dozens of arrow towers that look like the teeth of giant beasts.
The densely packed shooting holes on it make people's hearts tremble.
The two hundred-meter-high hills on the left and right are also covered with large and small fortifications.
If the enemy wants to climb over the hill, the attack they receive will not be weaker than attacking from the front.
This is a city that is rough but also armed to the teeth.
However, what puzzled him was that the orcs were particularly heavily guarded at the moment.
The flying dragons in the sky are constantly rising and falling, the heavy crossbows on the arrow towers have been cocked, and the number of troops on the city wall even exceeds the normal number.
The orcs seemed to be guarding against something.
Does the other party know about the arrival of Twilight City?
But it doesn't make sense. This level of alertness can be seen to last for a while.
Can the other party predict it in advance?
Or were they exposed?
Turning his head and looking behind him, the power of concealment enveloped the entire army, making it absolutely impossible for the outside world to detect it.
Just when he was doubting, Gunter rode a dark gargoyle and approached quickly.
"Master, we captured two teams of orc wolf cavalry."
Richard listened carefully.
"After interrogation, it was learned that the total number of the orc army is twelve thousand."
"Three thousand less? What's the reason?"
"Three thousand people were killed in the battle. The orcs went out on an expedition ten days ago. They used more than two legions of troops at that time. They only returned three days ago."
Richard nodded slightly, considering that orcs are full of aggressive character, this kind of thing is not surprising.
No wonder the security is tight, a sequelae of the war.
"What force did the orcs fight with?"
"They seem to have gained something from a vampire castle. They have been on the strictest alert inside and outside the city in the past few days."
vampire?
Richard frowned.
In "Age of Glory", vampires belong to the standard evil camp. Although there are not many in the main plane, they have a good reputation because of their strong fighting power.
"What else did you hear?"
Gunter shook his head with a bit of regret.
"No more, the other party can't bear my mental erosion, and his soul collapsed"
Richard couldn't laugh or cry.
After understanding the reason, the inner uneasiness dissipated.
Looking at the orc city with dozens of flying dragons lingering in the sky, his eyes gradually became sharper.
Tightly guarded?
He wants to see if the other party can block the edge of Twilight City
——
On the towering city wall made of rocks, the orc warlord, who was stronger than other orcs, led more than a dozen personal guards on the city wall to check the defenses.
Once you see a lax soldier, immediately step forward and yell at him.
High-frequency patrols keep the city defense on the highest alert at all times.
After walking around for two times, they just stopped when a few guards looked at the orc warlord with some confusion while they were drinking water.
"Sir, didn't we win the last time we attacked those vampires? Although we failed to bulldoze the castle, we still killed more than half of the vampires. Why are we so careful?"
In this land, the orcs are the most powerful kings.
Who can threaten them?
After hearing this, the orc warlord's face relaxed a little when he thought that not to mention enemies, he didn't even see a few flies these days.
"Don't be careless, this is the chief's order!"
As he spoke, his voice lowered a bit, and his face showed a bit of excitement.
"Don't tell others. The shaman seems to have gotten a lot of good things from the vampires. In order to prevent those lowly beings from jumping over the wall, he has been on high alert."
Anyone who can become a personal guard is the most trusted person, and the orc warlord does not hide it.
The guards suddenly realized, but then they seemed to think of something and said with a bit of disgust.
"Sir, when are we going to expel those grace lords? I feel sick when I see those cunning and greedy humans."
The orc warlord shook his head.
"Without the information provided by the grace lords, we would not be able to break into the vampire's castle so easily. Although those lowly humans are greedy, they are still good at doing things. You will do it in the future."
Before the words could even be finished, there was a roar like a waterfall rolling down from the sky.
The orc warlord felt a bad feeling and turned his head suddenly to look outside the city wall.
The next second, my hands and feet felt cold.
At some point, the green grass outside the city wall turned into a land of yellow sand.
In the blink of an eye, countless gravel surged up from the sand, forming a huge sand wave with a height of more than 50 meters.
Standing on the city wall with a height of more than 30 meters, you have to raise your head and look up to see the full picture of the sand waves.
What's this? !
The orc warlord was horrified.
But just when he was about to make a move, the monstrous sand wave had already condensed to the extreme.
The next second, the mountain collapsed.
Rumble~
Sweeping towards the city wall with a terrifying aura that devoured everything.
Natural disaster! !
All the orc soldiers on the city wall swallowed their saliva, and the hands holding their weapons were shaking uncontrollably.
The orcs dare to charge even if they face the dragon directly.
However, these brave and fearful soldiers felt uncontrollable fear at this moment.
That is the emotion that seeps out from the depths of the soul of ordinary beings when they face powerless natural disasters.
No matter how strong and brave the veteran is, he is still cold all over.
The orc warlord finally came to his senses, turned his head sharply, roared hysterically with all his strength.
"Enemy attack!!!"
But this rolling sound wave was drowned in the rumbling sound of the huge waves before it reached twenty meters.
At this moment, there was only the roar of sand waves between the sky and the earth. Even if the orc soldiers were only one or two meters apart, they had to use the loudest voice to hear each other's words.
This caused the orcs on the city wall to fall directly into chaos.
Some soldiers turned around and ran away, some raised their thick shields and prepared to resist, while some were at a loss and didn't know what to do at this moment.
The sand wave hit so fast that the orcs were not given much time to react.
In a panic.
Rumble~
The terrifying huge wave rushed to the front of the city wall.
Huge waves 20 meters above the city wall are about to pour into the city.
At this moment, a translucent magic shield emerged, covering the entire orc city.
Rumble~
The sand waves bombarded the magic shield, like a huge wave hitting a rock, and the sand splashed up to a height of a hundred meters.
This scene is very visually impactful.
Seeing this, the panicked orcs on the city wall felt grateful to have survived the disaster, and subconsciously turned their heads to look.
I saw an orc with a hunched body and an old face floating in the air out of thin air.
On the top of the black staff in his hand, a transparent gem exudes blue magical energy, forcibly supporting the magic shield.
Everyone was overjoyed.
"Master Shaman!!"
The panic-stricken heart immediately calmed down.
Morale began to soar.
As long as the great shaman is here, no one can capture their city! !
Everyone is in a state of excitement.
The world suddenly dimmed.
In the eyes of the orc, a dazzling sword slashed out from the endless waves of sand.
Wherever the sword light passed, the space was shattered inch by inch like glass.
The shaman suspended in the sky had unspeakable horror on his face.
He wanted to struggle and escape, but he seemed to be held in place by an invisible giant hand, unable to move.
Under the watchful eyes of all orcs.
The only sword that existed in the world at this moment, with a domineering and unparalleled attitude, slashed through the shaman.
Phew~
The moment the body was broken into two pieces, the sword light from behind directly shattered it into countless fragments of limbs.
After the sword light slashed through the shaman, it continued towards the rear.
The towering arrow towers had their tops cut off, and they crashed to the ground, sending up dust all over the sky.
The sword light extended hundreds of meters before disappearing into the air.
The orc soldier, who had just shown surprise on his face, felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
His eyes widened with disbelief and disbelief on his face.
The level 16 shaman is gone?
Were they killed by the enemy right under their noses? !
The situation changed too quickly and they were not mentally prepared
In the orc city, several players who had just been rewarded by the orc chief heard the noise outside and immediately came out excitedly, planning to see if there were any new tasks that could be triggered.
But the first time they walked out of the building, they saw the death of a level 16 orc shaman who was nearly invincible to them.
Shocked, unbelievable, unable to accept, the expression on his face was like a Sichuan opera face change.
The level 16 hero unit was killed in seconds!
Who is attacking? ? Why is it so powerful?
Why do these damn orcs provoke beings they can't afford to offend?
Before they could recover, a crisp sound resounded through the sky.
Several players subconsciously looked up at the city wall that made the sound.
An even more horrifying scene was reflected in their pupils.
The translucent magic shield that resisted the sand waves had countless cracks at this moment
The next second.
Bang~
Without the support of the shaman's power, the magic shield shattered.
The waves of sand that had accumulated to the extreme crashed down violently.
The densely packed orcs on the city wall were directly swallowed by the huge waves.
The sand waves were extremely violent, drowning everything. The towering arrow towers collapsed one after another, and the houses were washed away. The orcs who wanted to escape were helpless and were directly swept up by the sand waves
